Safety Requirements
For your protection, observe the following safety requirements:
■
Follow all cautions and instructions marked on the equipment.
■
Ensure that the voltage and frequency rating of the power outlet to be used
matches the electrical rating labels on the system.
■
Use properly grounded power outlets.
To protect both yourself and the equipment, observe the safety precautions listed in
TABLE 1-1.
TABLE 1-1
Safety Precautions

Problem
Precaution
AC power cord
Electrical shock
Disconnect the AC cord from the AC wall socket before working
on the power supply.
Grounding
Leave the AC power cord plugged into the AC wall outlet when
replacing drives, DIMMs, chips, or the system board. Leave the
AC power cord plugged into the wall outlet to provide a
grounding path for the antistatic wrist strap, which you must
wear while servicing the system.
Electric shock
Remove the DC power from the system by disconnecting the AC
power cord from the system before disconnecting a working unit
or connecting a replacement unit.
Power On/Standby
switch
Note: The power supply ”remembers” the state it was in when
power was interrupted. If it is not set to Standby before being
disconnected, the power supply will turn on automatically when
it is connected again. This occurs even if the Power On/Standby
switch or keyboard power key is not pressed.
Antistatic wrist strap
Electrostatic
Discharge (ESD)
Wear a grounded antistatic wrist strap when handling printed
circuit boards, drives, or other components such as DIMMs.
ESD mat
ESD
An approved antistatic mat, when used with an antistatic wrist
strap, provides protection from static damage and cushions and
protects small parts that are attached to printed circuit boards.
Place all components removed from the system onto the ESD mat.
Printed circuit board

ESD
Handle a printed circuit board by the edges only. Store printedcircuit boards in antistatic bags.

Precaution
Cover
System damage
and overheating
Replace the cover after servicing the system.
SBus slot filler panels
System damage
and overheating
Install filler panels in all unused SBus slots. Openings on the back
panel reduce the cooling capability of the system and allow EMI
emissions that exceed FCC compliance limits.
Heat sinks on
processor modules
and system boards
Heat, burns
Do not touch the metal heat sinks on processor modules or the
system board. The heat sinks can be hot enough to cause injury.
Symbols
The following symbols mean:
Caution – This equipment contains lethal voltages. Accidental contact can result in
serious injury or death.
Caution – Physical danger due to a non-electrical hazard or danger of irreversible
damage to data or to the operating system.
Caution – Improper handling by unqualified personnel can cause serious damage
to this equipment. Unqualified personnel who tamper with this equipment may be
held liable for any resulting damage to the equipment.
Caution – Hot surface. Avoid contact. Surfaces are hot and may cause injury if
touched.

System Precautions
Observe all safety precautions and ensure compliance with skill level requirements,
certification, and all applicable local and national laws.
Caution – Before you begin, carefully read each of the procedures in this manual. If
you have not performed similar operations on comparable equipment, do not
attempt to perform these procedures.
Lithium Battery
Caution – On Ultra 2 Series system boards, a lithium battery is molded into the
real-time clock, SGS No. MK48T18, MK48T08x-xxx, MT48TxxB-xxx, or MK48T18xxxPCZ. Batteries are not customer replaceable parts. They may explode if
mistreated. Do not dispose of the battery in fire. Do not disassemble it or attempt to
recharge it.

Performing the Upgrade
Overview
1. Read the documentation in the RMA (Return Material Authorization) information
package provided with the upgrade.
2. Follow the procedures described in this chapter:
a. Power off the system and all attached peripheral devices.
b. Disconnect all devices attached to the Ultra 2 Series system, including monitor,
keyboard, mouse, and associated cables.
c. Remove all DIMMs (memory modules) and any CD-ROM drive installed in the
Ultra 2 Series system, and install them in the Ultra 60 system.
For information about installing components into a Ultra 60 workstation, refer to the
Ultra 60 Installation Guide.
Note – SBus cards are not supported by the Ultra 60 system.
d. Connect the monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the Ultra 60 system as shown in
the Ultra 60 Installation Guide.
3. Follow the instructions in the RMA information package about packing and
returning the Ultra 2 Series enclosure and those components not moved to the
Ultra 60.
If you have any additional questions, contact your Sun sales representative.
5
Powering Off the System
Caution – When the Power switch is set to standby and the AC power cord remains
connected to a power outlet, hazardous AC voltage is still present in the power
supply primary.
The power supply ‘remembers’ the state it was in when power was interrupted.
Press the Power switch to Standby before you disconnect a working unit or connect
a replacement unit. If the power supply is not placed in standby before it is
disconnected, it turns on automatically when it is connected again, even if you do
not touch the system power switch or keyboard buttons.
1. If the Ultra 2 Series system that you are upgrading is being used as a server, notify
users that the system is going down.
2. Back up system files and data.
3. If the system that you are upgrading is being used as a server, shutdown the
operating system by becoming superuser and issuing the shutdown command.

Removing DIMMs
Caution – A DIMM is made of delicate electronic components that are extremely
sensitive to static electricity. Handle a DIMM only by the edges. Do not touch the
components on the DIMM or any metal parts. Wear an antistatic wrist strap before
unpacking and while handling a DIMM. Ordinary amounts of static from your
clothes or work environment can damage a DIMM.
Do not disconnect the power cord from the system unit back panel. The power
cord should also be connected to a grounded power outlet. This connection
provides the necessary ground path to safely remove and install DIMMs and other
components.
Be sure that the system unit power switch is set to Standby. Check the green light at
the front of the chassis to be sure it is off.
All Ultra 2 Series systems have at least four identical DIMMs, each set having the
same speed and capacity, installed in paired sockets of a DIMM bank.
Each DIMM has chips mounted on both sides. The part of the DIMM that connects
in the memory slot has gold “fingers,” a scalloped edge with a conductive surface.
FIGURE 2-5 and FIGURE 2-6 show front and back views of a DIMM. When installed, the
key notch should be near the DIMM ejector levers.
